I was hoping you guys were going to announce that you have picked up the new Fairy Tail and were going to finish dubbing the first run. Or that you finally picked up the second seasons of Galaxy Railways and Kingdom and were dubbing those. I hope that as the week progresses that some more announcements will be made along those lines.

I wanna see a dub of Kingdom aswell…. I didnt see the Japanese version because I dont like Japanese voices 😛 Blame dragon ball z Japanese voice actors xD. Anyways, Kingdom really looks intresting also on myanimelist it scores very high on the reviews.

It’s most likely that if the past liscenes shows get a new season or adaption that it will be liscened by funi, because if it sold great then why wouldnt they? Also, it’s most logic anyways since funi has the voice actors who played the previous roles.

Can anyone explain me why The Familiar of Zero got dropped by Funi? I’ve seen the first season in dub en the last 3 seasons in Japanese, I love the show… But it sold bad or something?

That was mostly due to cause of Low Sales. GENEON had Zero first and already had released it. But the time Funi re-released it it just didn’t get them then numbers they were hoping for. So they let it go to be picked up by Sentai. Who currently will be releasing it on Blu-ray now. Have to see if They get S2 and 3 and release 2-4 on dvd/bd or not.

Geneon actually never released Familiar of Zero, but it was one of the last shows that they announced. The FUNimation distribution release was the first US release of Familiar of Zero, but it used Geneon’s packaging and materials.

It apparently relates to comedian in Japan who has a bit where he thrusts his arm into his stretchy pants. You’ll also see a reference to this in one of the episodes of “Is This a Zombie? of the Dead” (episode 5, I believe)

Fairy Tail is the only reason I’ll subscribe lol. I still hate the whole idea of subscribing for the first week of a simucast. If CR gets it too, I’ll likely be watching it on that since it has a ps4 app and my cuz lets me use his CR account. Either way, great news!!

With the new Fairy Tail episodes starting on Saturday, I was hoping this would be announced today! Guess I’ll still have to watch the fan subs until that release schedule is confirmed, but still, this makes me very happy! Aye sir! ;3

I was too, but considering they have another 40 episodes to sub, it’s not that surprising. Still, I’m insanely glad that they’ll be able to post the new episodes on FRIDAY FREAKIN’ NIGHTS. Considering they’re being aired on Saturday mornings in Japan, that’s one awesome of a time table. Way to go, Funimation!

3 Boxes left, and one is more than likely Date A Live II. So that leaves 2 left… Unless they add a couple more boxes. Should know a bit more on Tuesday as that’s when Soul Eater Not!, and Hitsugi no Chaika’s (a Kadokawa / Bones Title) 1st episodes air in Japan.

I think they will add more boxes. Date A Live II and Soul Eater Not are givens, and even though it’s already streaming on Crunchyroll, I still think they’re going to get the rights to Captain Earth as well. It might be one of the shows that streams on both sites just like AoT, Fairy Tail, or Nobunagun.

Black Bullet might be a possible license too. I’m not expecting them to get Coffin Princess, however, as that’s airing on TBS, and Crunchyroll/Sentai tend to pick those off first.

Probably saving the biggest for last. Honestly, No Game, No Life seems more like a Sentai Filmworks show than anything else.

Anyways, neither of these two new announcements surprised me. Not was pretty obvious from the get-go, and Riddle Story of the Devil was expected after the first episode aired without a Crunchyroll announcement (most CR streams go to everyone BUT FUNi, Toei shows, Fairy Tail, and Attack on Titan aside).

Expect Sentai to license it like they did with Mayou and Problem Children. Noucome was a Kadokawa anime that was simulcasted on CR but not licensed. Maybe the can pull off an english dub like they did with problem children too!

Well the last one is a given. Soul Eater not wasn’t a bi surprise either. Glade they got it. Not that enthused for Riddle Story of the Devil though. Hope we have some surprise announcements to add to this.

Am I the only one who thinks “Hero Bank” will probably be licensed by 4Kids Entertainment. I actually didn’t expect anything on this list beside the givens like “One Piece” and “Soul Eater Not!” I’m guessing the last slot will be “Date A Live II” or something new like “Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky,” And how come they don’t have “Dragon ball Z Kai: Majin Buu Saga.” Did they didn’t get the rights?

Good morning Michelle I have a couple of questions about hulu availability on Buddy Complex episode #13 its the only episode from the Winter 2014 season not up on hulu yet (it’s Thursday morning and it should have been uploaded Monday night). And if Fairy Tail Series 2 episode 176 will be simulcast on hulu along with the rest of funimation’s Spring 2014 shows beginning this weekend?

hey I just spent the last half hour combing through the Funimation General Forum looking for the anime request thread to no avail, so I’m gonna put my requests up here. 1. Arpeggio of Blue Steel, 2. Strike The Blood, 3. I Couldn’t Become A Hero, So I Reluctantly Decided To Get A Job. These where good shows that I personally think would fit in well the rest of shows you have the rights to stream and release on blu-ray/dvd

and like Ben-To you guys acquired after the series ended but hopefully it won’t take as long to acquire the streaming and home release rights. I would love to see and hear what you guy’s and ladies could do with these property’s

what about soul eater its one of the ones i like the most so far and i would be so grateful if you would make the seasons keep going but i also see that you have all of the other good ones on here to but i see that soul eater is the only one that you didn’t make yet ……so can you make that happen please

you guys should make more episode of soul eater. it would be awesome if you did because there are many many fans out there like myself who enjoyed the show to the fullest extent. if you ask me, i think soul eater was one of the best shows ever aired. i a an american but i am still in love with the show. 51 episode was definitely not enough in y opinion. if you read this and your team decides to make more episodes, you should think about adding a little more romance. thx
